COVID-19 OVERVIEW

To promote a safe environment for all, we ask visitors to adhere to the following CA COVID-19 and The Museum SFV common sense guidelines:

UPDATED: November 29, 2021

Public and private events are an important part of our cultural life. Museums, galleries, performing arts venues, and venues that host private events inspire and connect our community and foster social health.

Effective November 8, 2021, indoor events with fewer than 1,000 and outdoor events with 5,000-9,999 attendees are required to provide proof of vaccination, per the LA City Vaccination Verification Ordinance. This means before entering The Museum SFV, all members, donors, and visitors must show proof of vaccination with card and or recent, within 72 h ours negative test.

Please do not visit if you are not feeling well, have been diagnosed with COVID-19 or have been exposed to someone who is ill.

We encourage masks to be worn outside on the grounds if there will be close contact with visitors that are not family members.

The Museum SFV, once re-opened, will require masks to be worn inside of The Museum, for the safety of all visitors.  This policy will be reviewed regularly internally and as mandated by the State of CA, County of Los Angeles and City of Los Angeles, Department of Health.

For The Museum SFV special tours and events, most tickets may be purchased online. There are normally opportunities to purchase tickets on site too.   Group Tours will be scheduled upon the re-opening of The Museum, with some restrictions on total number of attendees per group.

When entering The Museum SFV grounds or inside of the building, please maintain social distance. 

  Stay six feet away from others not in your household.

  Follow designated routes marked by floor graphics.

  Keep moving through the galleries and avoid lingering in one area.

  Use hand sanitizer frequently. Dispensers are located inside The Museum SFV.

  No food or drinks are allowed inside the facility. Tables and chairs are available for visitors to consume food     or drinks outside.

Additional Information:

Regular cleaning measures have been instituted for high-touched areas, interactive displays and surfaces throughout the day.
